You could help us with practical or administrative tasks:

​

• caring for and maintaining the trees in the orchard in Northern Parkland. Two local Primary Schools, Manor Fields and Hillmead are already involved and other groups would be welcome. We have started with 31 trees and plan to add to the number in later years. The trees are a mix of apples, pears, plums and cherries.

• working towards setting up an orchard at another site, Jenkins Lane. The Town Council have signed a lease and awarded initial funding for an orchard at Jenkins Lane. This site will require significant work to clear and fence it. The Community Orchard Group will be recruiting volunteers and seeking additional funds.
